6. Wrote her a letter with the kind of “romantic” language I learned from the telenovelas my babysitter would watch, stuff like “I long for the sweet touch of your lips”. I was 6 or something. I also said I wanted to marry her. When my parents asked, “where would you sleep?” I triumphantly answered, “together in your room of course!” (I still slept in my parents’ bed, too scared to sleep alone). Read More…By — Thebangzats

20. The first one I remember was in 3rd grade. My sister convinced me to make her a valentine, a big cardboard heart, I mean huge. Painted red and all that. Don’t really remember her reaction but I remember being happy and my sisters who helped me make it and told me to do it being happy as well. Fast forward a little to family reunion, the only one I have ever been to. Notice her and was exited [sic] because I’ve never seen her outside of school. Asked her what she was doing there. She ended up being my cousin. Read More…By — CantLookBack012

Let’s Find Out What Other People Have To Say About “First Crush Stories” On Quora

I have had my fair share of high school crushes, including a couple of teachers as well. Today, when I look back, it brings a smile on my face. The one I find worth mentioning is the crush I had on my classmate in 10th grade. The interesting part is I was the boy Prefect and she was the girl Prefect, yet I barely spoke to her during the entire year. That’s how awkward and shy I used to be around girls (I still am). She was good looking, decent at academics and pretty good at sports. I really wanted to speak to her but had no courage to do so. I would spend most of my time avoiding eye contact whenever we were on Prefect duty, or even otherwise. Read More… By Naveen N. Bhat

In 12th std, I had a huge crush on a guy. We seldom talked and when we did, we fought. He used to tease me a lot along with his friends but that was okay since I was friends with most of the guys in his group. He is very shy and didn’t talk to a lot of girls. Read More… By Garima Madan

I’m currently in high school and I’ve liked this guy for two years and everyday I wonder if he would ever like me?

I’m Hispanic, I’m not skinny nor am I fat I’m pretty slim. Read More… – Sofia Velez

There was a girl I liked in high school. Everybody in school including a few teachers thought there was something mutual but there was nothing. She hated me as much as I liked her, talked a few times only in 4 years. Four years flew away so quickly, we went to separate places after school. She kept me blocked on fb since the day I created my account and when she unblocked me, I blocked her. Read More… – Dhruv Kumar

School crush. Wow! I had my school crush when I was in my 11th grade. He was in his 10th grade. It was a pretty awesome one 😀 The first day I saw him was in the parking lot of my school. I was sitting with a bunch of friends and he came to the parking lot and drove off. It was one beautiful thing I saw in that hot summer and scorching heat. I was flying for a moment. It took me sometime to get myself back to my senses. When I went home, all I had in my head was his handsome face. He was pretty tall and good looking Read More… – Aparna Ajith

In my school-life, I was a nerd! I was so studious that I looked up from books only to see the black-board in class. I never befriended any guys. I hated them. I found them very unhygienic and filthy. I was always happy with my clean-girls-group. But when I was in 12th standard (year 2011), I had a strong crush on this guy, and I developed it during board-exams! Read More… – Mehek Bassi
